I worked on my class C motor home today.
...white knuckle experiences on the road... gusty wind ... blow ... off the road.
...putting in wonderful HD Bilstein shock absorbers, and a marvelous Hellwig add-on rear anti-roll bar... will not know until the next trip...
Thought I would give an update, in case anyone is curious, or has had or will have the same experience.
A few days ago, we took a short one-night trip to a small town 200 miles away. Did not have the toad in tow, but there was some wind. Not as bad as what I encountered in Wyoming, but enough for me to tell there was a big improvement.
Earlier, the RV was so sensitive to crosswind that my wife often asked "What are you doin'?", as if I was the one jerking the vehicle around on the highway. So, I said "Gosh, I am trying to keep us both alive here".
Well, that was not my actual reply, but I did not make up her accusation above.
On the road, I quickly learned to verify that there was indeed crosswind (wanted to be sure that it was not because of tire problems or something like that) by looking at the waving grass by the road side, and also to estimate the wind speed.
This time, man oh man, the driving was so less tiring!
Another difference was when I got passed by a semi. Used to be that I had to drive while watching the left-side mirror all the time, to prepare myself for when a big truck passed me. For, if I did not prepare myself and got caught by surprise, it would have blown me about 2 or 3 ft to the right as it passed. This time, well, maybe about 3 or 4 inches.
I cannot be 100% sure until a trip with the toad hooked up, but so far it's money and time well spent. Don't you love it when things work out like that?
